## Note

For an undergraduate course in 2020, I tried to run the replication material of
my 2006 EUP article. The original replication material was provided on an EUP
web page at the University of Konstanz, if I remember correctly. Public data
repositories, such as the Harvard Dataverse, were not yet regularly used by
social scientists at the time.

In 2020, I went back to my old 2006 files. Here is what I had to adjust.

+ update do-file (see also header of file)
  + install packages
  + all results into one "output" folder
  + ignore spost9 commands: prchange prtab
  + (compare with "archive-2016/commissioners-2006.do")
+ graphs in R as pdf files

Looking back at my old do-script, I realize what a blessing Stata has provided
with "margins".

Overall, I am somewhat impressed that most of the code is still running,
required only minor modification and was written in a way accessible more than a
decade later.
